एक पटकथा लेखक के रूप में आप वैश्यालय में तौलिए संभालने वाले लड़के की तरह होते हैं। मेरा मतलब है, आप खुद को खुशनसीब मान सकते हैं अगर आपको सेट पर बुला लिया जाए। यह कुछ ऐसा है जैसे - यह रहा ब्लूप्रिंट, जाओ और काम करो। और इस बात पर थोड़ी बहस भी होती रही है कि फिल्म निर्देशक की होनी चाहिए, पटकथा लेखक की या फिर दोनों की।
As a screenwriter you're the towel boy in the whorehouse. I mean you know you're lucky if you're invited to set. It's kind of like here is the blueprint, go and that's you know there has been some debate as to whether or not a film should be by the director or by the screenwriter or by both.

लिखना और अभिनय करना एक-दूसरे के बिल्कुल विपरीत चीज़ें हैं। एक अभिनेता के रूप में, यह आपके ही हित में है कि आप शारीरिक रूप से फिट और स्वस्थ रहें, आपकी आवाज़ मज़बूत हो और आप लचीले हों। वहीं एक लेखक के रूप में आप घंटों एक ही जगह पर बैठे रहते हैं। आप उठते हैं और अपने कंधे को हिला तक नहीं पाते। यह एक स्वस्थ जीवनशैली नहीं है, यों कहें कि आपके साथ रहने वाले व्यक्ति के लिए भी शायद यह स्वास्थ्यवर्धक नहीं है, लेकिन आप अपनी तरफ से पूरी कोशिश करते हैं।
Writing and acting are almost diametrically opposed in terms of being an actor it's in your interest to be in shape and to be healthy and to have a strong voice and to be flexible. As a writer you're sitting in this position for hours on end. You get up and you can't put your shoulder down. It's not a healthy existence so to speak and it's probably not healthy for the person that lives with you either, but you do the best you can.

मुझे लगता है कि 'वॉल स्ट्रीट 2' के दौरान मैंने जिस कंपनी से सबसे ज़्यादा सीखा, वो जॉन थॉमस फाइनेंशियल थी—खास तौर पर मेरे अपने किरदार और वो जिस तरह की फर्म में काम करता था, उसके संदर्भ में। वहाँ माहौल ऐसा था जैसे अखाड़े में योद्धा युद्ध के लिए तैयार हो रहे हों। थॉमस बेलेसिस इन लोगों में ऐसा जोश भर देते थे कि मानो कल हो ही न, और मैं उनके उस आशावाद, एड्रेनालाईन और "हम इसे कर दिखाएंगे, हम यह कर लेंगे, दोस्त" वाले रवैये का पूरी तरह से मु मुरीद हो गया था।
A company that was I think the one I learned the most from in Wall Street 2, just in terms of my own character in and the kind of firm he worked in, was John Thomas Financial. There it's like warriors in an arena getting ready for battle. Thomas Belesis just fires these guys up like there is no tomorrow, and I absolutely got addicted to that optimism and adrenaline and that "We're going to do it, we're going to do it, buddy" kind of attitude that he had.

मेरा मतलब है कि हमारी तकनीक की कीमत अंततः हमारी मानवता के रूप में चुकानी पड़ सकती है, इसलिए मुझे लगता है कि आपको इसमें संतुलन बनाकर रखना होगा। व्यक्तिगत रूप से मैं मौका मिलने पर एक के बदले एक काम करने की कोशिश करता हूँ। एक फिल्म करो, फिर एक नाटक करो, फिर एक फिल्म करो, फिर एक नाटक करो—और साथ ही साथ लिखते रहना और उस चक्र में बने रहना।
I mean the price of our technology may very well end up being our humanity, so I think you got to have that balance. Personally I try to do one for one if I can. Do a movie, do a play, do a movie, do a play - while at the same time writing and being in that cycle.

यह इंसानों के बीच का एक ऐसा जुड़ाव है जो जाहिर तौर पर स्क्रीन और कैमरे के आते ही खत्म हो जाता है, इसलिए मुझे लगता है कि हमारे पास हमेशा थिएटर रहेगा। मुझे लगता है कि थिएटर हमेशा एक शक्तिशाली ताकत बना रहेगा क्योंकि हमें उस मानवीय स्पर्श की जरूरत होती है, खासकर तब जब हम मशीनों, मोबाइल फोन और कंप्यूटर के साथ ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा समय बिता रहे हैं और अपनी इंसानियत खोने लगे हैं।
It's a certain kind of human compact that obviously you lose as soon as there is a screen and a camera there, so I think we'll always have theater. I think theater will always be a powerful force because we need that human touch, particularly as we spend more and more time with machines, cell phones, computers we start to lose our humanity.

मुझे लगता है कि मेरे पिता अपने जीवन के अंतिम दौर में इस बात से जूझ रहे थे कि अब यह बदलाव कैसे आ गया है। वे अपनी बुक टूर पर जाते और अपने शो करते और वह सब संतोषजनक और अच्छा होता, लेकिन उन्हें वह प्रभाव नहीं मिलता था जो पहले मिला करता था और इसका कारण यह नहीं था कि लोगों की दिलचस्पी कम हो गई थी। बात सिर्फ इतनी थी कि लोग अपने सामने मौजूद मनोरंजन और जानकारी के लाखों अलग-अलग स्रोतों की वजह से विचलित हो चुके हैं।
I think that one of the things that my dad was grappling with towards the end was how that shift had happened now and he would go on a book tour and do his shows and it would be you know fulfilling and good, but he wouldn't have the same impact that he used to and it wasn't because people were less interested. It's just because people are distracted by the million different sources of entertainment and information in front of them at any given time.

मुझे लगता है कि विभिन्न क्षेत्रों में ऐसे विशेषज्ञ होते हैं जो अपना पूरा जीवन किसी एक चीज़ के अध्ययन में बिता देते हैं। जब कोई ऐसी घटना घटती है, तो इस बात की पूरी संभावना होती है कि वे चाहेंगे कि वही खास विशेषज्ञ जिसने उस पर काम किया है, शो में आकर उस पर बात करे, न कि कोई लेखक या किसी भी तरह का कलाकार, जिसे मैं एक गलती मानता हूँ क्योंकि आप जानते हैं कि हमारे पास... मेरा मतलब है कि वे लोग हैं, लेकिन अब निश्चित रूप से मजबूत प्रभाव वाले सार्वजनिक दार्शनिक (पब्लिक फिलॉसफर) नहीं बचे हैं।
I think that you know you have experts in fields who spend their life studying one thing. When an event goes on that chances are they're going to want that specific expert who has done it to be on the show talking about it, not a writer or an artist of any sort, which I think is a mistake because you know we don't have... I mean we have them, but there is certainly not you know in strong force public philosophers anymore.

मुझे लगता है कि एंडरसन कूपर कहानियों के साथ बने रहने और उन्हें आगे बढ़ाने में बहुत बढ़िया काम करते हैं। न्यू ऑलिंस में उन्होंने वाकई... वे वहाँ थे और उन्होंने इसे उस हद से आगे बढ़ाया जहाँ उनके निर्माता कह रहे थे, "सुनो, तुम्हें अब रुकना होगा क्योंकि लोग अब टीवी से चैनल बदल रहे हैं। देखो, हम किसी और आपदा पर आगे बढ़ चुके हैं।" आप जानते हैं, आप किस बात की चिंता करें, हैती, चिली, तुर्की? क्या? आप अपना ध्यान और फोकस कहाँ केंद्रित करें? इसलिए किसी एक व्यक्ति के लिए इतने सारे मोर्चों को संभालना वाकई बहुत कठिन होगा।
I think that Anderson Cooper does a great job of staying with stories and pushing them. New Orleans he really... He was there and he pushed it past the point where his producers were saying, "Listen, you've got to stop because people are tuning out now. You know, we're on to another disaster." You know, what do you worry about, Haiti, Chile, Turkey? What? You know where do you put your attention and your focus? So for one person to really be able to cover all that ground would be tough.

मैं नहीं जानता कि अब किसी के लिए भी उस स्तर की आवाज़ (प्रभाव) रख पाना संभव है क्योंकि हमारा मीडिया बहुत बिखर चुका है और कई हिस्सों में बंट चुका है। आप जानते हैं कि लोग अखबार उठाकर यह देखने के बजाय कि क्या चीज़ उनका ध्यान खींच रही है, अपनी पसंद की खबरें और जानकारी खुद चुनते हैं। यह एक बहुत बड़ा अंतर है और कुछ ही ऐसी खबरें होती हैं जो बहुत बड़े पैमाने पर फैलती हैं और जिनके बारे में हर कोई सुनता है, लेकिन वे आमतौर पर मशहूर हस्तियों से जुड़ी मसालेदार बातें होती हैं जिनका कोई ठोस आधार नहीं होता, या फिर वह कोई ताज़ा आपदा होती है जिसे इस तरह से परोसा जाता है कि बस स्क्रीन पर लोगों की नज़रें टिकाई जा सकें।
I don't know if it's possible for anyone to really have that level of a voice anymore because our media is so diluted and parsed out. You know people kind of go for the news and information that they want as opposed to picking up a paper and seeing what catches their eye. It's a very stark difference and there is a few stories that end up going wide and everybody hears about them, but they're usually salacious celebrity stuff that is not about substance or it's the latest disaster and it's kind of covered in a way that is just trying to get eyeballs on the screen.

हालाँकि, जो चीज़ ओलिवर स्टोन को अलग बनाती है, वह यह है कि वह व्यावसायिक हैं। वह मुख्यधारा के निर्देशक हैं। वह बड़ी फिल्में बनाते हैं और वह उन आखिरी कुछ लोगों में से हैं जो ऐसी बड़ी फिल्में बना सकते हैं जिनका वास्तव में कोई अर्थ होता है, जो दर्शकों का मनोरंजन करने के साथ-साथ उन्हें एक अलग तरीके से चुनौती भी देती हैं।
One of the things that sets Oliver Stone apart though is he is commercial. He is mainstream. He makes big movies and he is one of the last guys that can make big movies that actually have something to say, that you know challenge the audience in a way while entertaining them.

मैं कहूंगा कि एकमात्र ऐसा व्यक्ति जिसे मैं जानता हूँ जो सार्वजनिक बहसों को प्रभावित करने के मामले में उन गुणों को मिलाता है जो मेरे पिता में हुआ करते थे, वह ओलिवर स्टोन हैं। उनकी शैक्षणिक प्रतिभा, वास्तविक जीवन के अनुभवों और लोगों को समझने की क्षमता का मेल ही उन्हें इतना महान कहानीकार बनाता है, और साथ ही वह परवाह भी करते हैं। वह रुचि रखते हैं। वह किसी से मिलते हैं और उनकी बात सुनते हैं। उनके पास कुछ सवाल होते हैं। वह जानना चाहते हैं कि सामने वाला व्यक्ति क्या है। और परिणामस्वरूप, मुझे लगता है कि उनकी दुनिया की समझ बाकी लोगों की तुलना में कहीं अधिक जटिल और संपूर्ण है।
I would say the only one person I know of who kind of combines the elements that my father brought to the table in terms of affecting the public discourse would be Oliver Stone. His combination of academic brilliance and real life experience and just understanding people I think is what makes him such a great storyteller, but also he cares. He is interested. He meets somebody and he listens to them. He has some questions. He wants to know what they're about. And as a result I think his worldview is much more complex and whole and most of the other.

वह मेरे पिता का खुद पर हंसने, अपने अस्तित्व, ब्रह्मांड और इन सब बातों पर हंसने का तरीका था, और जो कुछ भी हम करते हैं उसे लेकर बहुत ज़्यादा गंभीर न होने का नज़रिया था, क्योंकि दिन के अंत में यदि आप यहाँ हैं तो यह एक वरदान है। आप जानते हैं, जीवन कठिन है। जीवन किसी न किसी मोड़ पर हर किसी के लिए कठिन होता है, लेकिन जो लोग इस पर हंस सकते हैं, इसके साथ मुस्कुरा सकते हैं और इसके साथ तालमेल बिठाकर चल सकते हैं, वे अंततः एक पूर्ण जीवन जीते हैं जिसकी तलाश हम सभी कर रहे हैं। और इसमें एक बड़ा कदम यह है कि आप शुरुआत से ही खुद को बहुत ज़्यादा गंभीरता से लेना बंद कर दें।
That was my dad's sense of, you know, laughing at himself, laughing at existence, the universe, all of it and not being too serious about what we do with because at the end of the day if you're here it's a blessing. It's you know life is hard. Life is hard for everybody at some point, but it's those who are able to laugh at it and laugh with it and roll with it that ultimately I think live the fulfilling lives that we're all trying to do. You know, and big step there is to not take yourself too seriously from the start.

वहाँ बहुत सारे अलग-अलग गुट थे और मुझे लगता है कि मेरे पिता इसी बात का विरोध कर रहे थे कि, देखिये, आप पुरुष प्रधानता से महिला प्रधानता की ओर जाकर यह उम्मीद नहीं कर सकते कि कुछ भी बेहतर हो जाएगा। आखिरकार हम सब एक जैसे ही हैं, और हमें मिलकर अपनी तरफ से पूरी कोशिश करनी चाहिए।
There were so many different factions and that's I think what my father was taking issue with was the idea of, look, you can't go from male dominance to female dominance and expect anything to be better. We're all shits, ultimately, and we've got to do the best we can together.

नॉर्मन मेलर महिलाओं से बहुत प्यार करते थे। मेरा मतलब है कि दुनिया में शायद किसी भी चीज़ से ज़्यादा वह महिलाओं से प्रेम करते थे। उन्हें एक ऐसी स्थिति में ला खड़ा किया गया जहाँ उन्हें स्त्री-विरोधी (एंटी-फेमिनिस्ट) के रूप में देखा जाने लगा, हालांकि वह नारीवादी आंदोलन के पक्ष में थे। वह बस यह नहीं चाहते थे कि लोग इस विचार में खो जाएं कि इससे सब कुछ बहुत बेहतर हो जाएगा। उन्होंने कहा था, "देखिए, महिलाओं के साथ समान और निष्पक्ष व्यवहार किया जाना चाहिए।"
Norman Mailer loved women so much. I mean probably more than anything in the world he loved women. He got put into a position where he was kind of seen as the anti-feminist, although he was for the feminist movement. He just didn't want people to get consumed with the idea that this was going to be much better. He said, "Look, women should be treated equally and fairly."

मारीजुआना को वैध बनाने के विरोध में कई ताकतें हैं, इसलिए मैं बिना सोचे-समझे जल्दबाजी में कोई कदम नहीं उठाना चाहता। ऐसा लग रहा है कि मामला वैधीकरण की दिशा में आगे बढ़ रहा है, जिसे बहुत से लोग लंबे समय से जरूरी मानते रहे हैं—सिर्फ शौक या चिकित्सा के लिए नहीं, बल्कि अपराध से जुड़ी वजहों से। हम मामूली मामलों में गांजा रखने पर अपनी जेलों को कैदियों से भर रहे हैं और इसका एक मकसद उस इंडस्ट्री को बढ़ावा देना भी है, लेकिन यह सही नहीं है। यह समाज के लिए बिल्कुल अच्छा नहीं है, लोग अंदर एक छोटे-मोटे अपराधी के रूप में जाते हैं और बाहर आकर एक पक्के क्रिमिनल बन जाते हैं
There's a lot of forces opposed to legalization marijuana, so I don't want to put the cart before the horse. It's looking like it's going the legalization route, which, you know, a lot of people thought it needs to for a long time outside of recreational and medicinal use, just for crime reasons. We're pumping our prisons full of petty weed offenses and it's partially to feed that industry, but it's not good. It's not good for society, people go in there as a minor criminal and come out as a real criminal.

आम तौर पर यह माना जाता है कि एक बार जब आप किसी को जेल में डाल देते हैं, तो वह सुधर कर बाहर नहीं आएगा। जी नहीं, वे बाहर आते हैं और ज़रा सोचिए, उस प्रक्रिया से आपने किस तरह के दानव को पैदा कर दिया है?
It seems to be the sense that once you throw guys in prison they're not going to come out. No, they're going to come out and, you know, what kind of beast have you created from that process?

मेरा मानना है कि आखिरकार जब जिंदगी में कोई त्रासदी न हो, तो यह एक जश्न की तरह होनी चाहिए और अगर आपने असल मुश्किलों का सामना किया है, अगर आपने अपनों को मौत के करीब से गुजरते देखा है, तो जैसा कि आप कहते हैं, छोटी-मोटी बातें आपके मूड को खराब नहीं करनी चाहिए
I think that ultimately when life is not tragedy it should be a party and if you've faced the real stuff, if you've faced the ones closest to you being at death's door, passing on, you know, not to let the small stuff really harsh your mellow, as you put it.

अगर आप फिल्म इंडस्ट्री में उतरने जा रहे हैं, तो यह दिल टूटने वाली घटनाओं से भरा पड़ा है। आप सफलता के इतने करीब पहुँच जाते हैं और फिर बात नहीं बनती, लेकिन कभी-कभार ऐसा संयोग बैठ जाता है कि यह किसी सपने या जादू जैसा लगने लगता है। इसलिए इसके उतार-चढ़ाव को झेलने के लिए आपका जिगर फौलादी होना चाहिए और आपको वह करने में सक्षम होना चाहिए जो कभी डेविड डिकिंस ने कहा था—"सुनिए, कुछ दिन अच्छे होते हैं, कुछ दिन बुरे, लेकिन जब भी कोई बुरा दिन आता है, तो मुझे पता होता है कि अगला दिन अच्छा होने वाला है और इसका उल्टा भी सच है, इसलिए आपको किसी एक पल को लेकर बहुत ज्यादा उम्मीदें या निराशा नहीं पालनी चाहिए।"
If you're going to go into the movie business it is so full of heartbreak and you get so close and it doesn't happen and then once in a while it works out and it is the fantasy, like it is that dream. So riding the highs and lows of it you got to have an iron constitution and you got to be able to do what David Dinkins actually one said - "Well you know some days are good, some days are bad, but anytime there is a bad day I know the next day is going to be good and vice versa, so you just can't put too much stock in that moment."

यह एक ऐसी पहल थी जिससे उम्मीद है कि भविष्य में कुछ लोगों को ऐसी ही चीजें करने की प्रेरणा मिलेगी और मैगजीन पब्लिशिंग का एक खास अंदाज जिंदा रहेगा। मुझे कहना होगा कि दिन के अंत में मैं इस बात से खुश हूँ कि मुझे अपना पूरा दिन, हर दिन 'हाई टाइम्स' के दफ्तर में जिंदगी के इस खास पहलू को कवर करने में नहीं बिताना पड़ता
It was something that hopefully sparked a few people to do similar things down the road and will keep a certain flavor of magazine publishing alive. I have to say at the end of the day I am glad not to be spending all day, every day in the High Times office, you know, covering this particular angle of life.

जैसे-जैसे नई पीढ़ी आ रही है, जिनमें कागजी चीजें पढ़ने की आदत नहीं है, उनके लिए ऑनलाइन सामग्री पाना ज्यादा आसान और सस्ता है। लोग उसी चीज़ की तरफ जाते हैं जिसके वे आदी हैं। बेशक हमारी पीढ़ी, हम हमेशा अपने हाथों में मैगजीन रखना चाहेंगे। हमें यह पसंद है, लेकिन मिलेनियल्स को इसमें कोई खास तुक नजर नहीं आई
As each generation comes up that doesn't have the habits for paper it's just easier and cheaper to get your stuff online. You know, people go to what they're used to. Certainly our generation, you know, we'll always want to have a magazine in our hands. We like that, but millennials didn't see the value in that necessarily.

मुझे लगता है कि अगर आप एम्स्टर्डम जैसी जगहों को देखें जहाँ पॉट (गांजा) पूरी तरह कानूनी है, तो वे इसे बहुत अच्छे से संभाल रहे हैं। इससे समाज को कोई नुकसान नहीं होता, अपराध बहुत कम हैं और बाकी सब भी ठीक है
I think that if you look at places like Amsterdam and places where pot is very legal they do well with it. There is nothing taken away from it and crime is very low and all that.

मुझे याद है जब मैंने अपनी और अपने पिता की मिलकर छपी किताब 'द बिग एम्प्टी' के सिलसिले में उनसे वैधीकरण पर बात की थी। वह कह रहे थे, "अरे नहीं-नहीं, जैसे ही यह वैध होगा, इसका सत्यानाश हो जाएगा। बड़ी-बड़ी कंपनियाँ इस पर कब्जा कर लिया करेंगी। तुम्हें ऐसा गांजा मिलने लगेगा जिसमें विटामिन सी मिला होगा, या फिर 'वियाग्रा' जैसा नशा देने वाला गांजा।" इस तरह की और भी बातें। मतलब यह कि वे इसमें केमिकल्स मिला देंगे। यह वैसी शुद्ध जड़ी-बूटी नहीं रहेगी जैसी यह आज है। हो सकता है कि उनकी बात में दम हो
I remember talking to my dad about legalization in a book we did together called "The Big Empty." He was saying like, "Oh, no, no, as soon as it's legalized it will be ruined." "The corporations will get their hands on it. You'll have, you know, pot with vitamin C and, you know, 'Viagratized High Toke.'" You know different things like that. That it won't be, you know, they'll put chemicals into it. It won't be that pure plant that it is now. He may have a good point there.

इसके अलावा सामाजिक और व्यक्तिगत स्तर पर भी, गांजे के साथ एक रोमांच जुड़ा हुआ है। इसमें एक बागीपन, कानून तोड़ने का मजा और सरकार को ठेंगा दिखाने वाला एक अंदाज़ है, जैसे आप कह रहे हों कि हे सरकार, तुम मुझे यह नहीं बता सकते कि मुझे क्या करना है। अगर इसे वैध बना दिया जाए, तो यह सब खत्म हो जाएगा
There's also just socially, personally. There is something naughty about pot. There is something that is rebellious and outlawish and a kind of, you know, a finger in the eye of the government saying, hey, you can't tell me what to do. That would be gone if legalize it.

व्यावहारिक रूप से देखा जाए तो वैधीकरण के खिलाफ क्या है? कॉलेज के कुछ छात्रों ने हेम्प (भांग) के पौधे से अखबार बनाना ढूंढ निकाला और वह वास्तव में बेहतर क्वालिटी का कागज था। यह सस्ता था और अगर आप खेत में भांग उगाते हैं, तो यह मिट्टी की उर्वरता को फिर से बढ़ा देता है। अगर आप पर्याप्त मात्रा में हेम्प की फसल उगाएं, तो आप बंजर जमीन पर भी अनाज उगा सकते हैं। मैं यह दावा तो नहीं करता कि मुझे इसके अर्थशास्त्र की सारी बारीकियों का पता है कि हमें कितना फायदा होगा, लेकिन इसमें बहुत पैसा कमाया जा सकता है जो फिलहाल इसलिए नहीं कमाया जा रहा क्योंकि यह अवैध है
What's against legalization in a practical sense? A couple of college kids figured out how to take a hemp plant and turn it into newspaper and it was actually a better quality of paper. It was cheaper and if you plant hemp in a field it revitalizes the soil. You can grow food in a dirt lot if you do enough harvest of hemp. I don't pretend to know the specifics of the economics of it to say how much we'll be getting, but there is money to be made there that is not being made because it's illegal.

मेरी माँ को कैंसर रह चुका है और उन्होंने इस बीमारी का डटकर मुकाबला किया है। इस दौरान उन्होंने जी मिचलाने और अन्य तकलीफों से लड़ने के लिए कभी-कभार कैनेविस (भांग) का इस्तेमाल किया। वैसे यह उनकी आदत में नहीं है, लेकिन कुछ ऐसे वक्त आए जब उन्हें इसकी जरूरत पड़ी। और यह विचार कि आप इसे इसलिए नहीं पा सकते क्योंकि यह एक अवैध ड्रग है, जबकि ऑक्सीकंटिन कानूनी रूप से उपलब्ध है—यह अपने आप में एक ऐसा पागलपन है जिसे मुझे लगता है कि ज्यादातर लोग अच्छी तरह समझ सकते हैं
Having a mother who has had cancer and fought through it and at times used cannabis to you know fight off nausea and whatnot. I mean it's not really her thing, but there were times when she needed it and the idea that you can't have it because it's an illegal drug, but OxyContin is legal. That's you know that's just insane to a level that I think most people understand.
